I would get one. I didn’t (borrowed whenever I needed to go in a taxi/rental car) and I regretted it afterwards. Try and see if you can get one that expires after 10 years vs 5 if that exists so it will last for more kids iyh.

Up to what stage should the carseat be? Newborn would only go up to about 13 kg am I right?
Trying to save money as well, so would I need to buy a new carseat soon after when the baby grows out of it? How would you go about doing this in the least expensive way? |
Unfortunately it's only the newborn kind (which some kids, not mine, but some, fit into until around their first birthday or even later) that snap into strollers and are easy to move from car to car. I would say its definitely worth getting an infant seat (you may want to find one that has higher height limits if possible since that's how most kids outgrow first), and then you'll reevaluate if you need a second carseat when baby outgrows that.

I didn’t read all the other replies, but I wanted to tell you OP, we bought our Joie about 5 years ago on Strauss. It was a package deal that at the time was about ₪2500 for the frame, sal kal, ambatya, tiyolon and coordinating rain covers. Second born (almost two month k”h) is currently using all of the above and it’s still holding strong. Both of my births were HEK and they do want to know that baby is going home in a sal kal if in a car.

The sal kal is the infant car seat. I would check how long you can use it, cuz it usually goes by weight. Our first born was a very tiny peanut who grew slowly so rye infant seat lasted him till a year and half but that’s not typical. The advantage to buying here in Israel is that with the warranty you can just go back to the store where you purchased from if something gets broken and they will send it in for repair. Example, our joie frame had a break when my first born was about a year. The store on Strauss sent in the frame to be repaired and it was still covered by the warranty so we paid nothing.
Also it is a good investment if you are planning on doing any amount of car travel as it is the law in Israel to have children band infants in a car seat and a very crucial safety measure as others in the thread stated.

If you ever plan to take the baby in a car get a good car seat
Never ever keep a child on your lap no matter how short the ride. Not in a taxi, ever.
You can leave the hospital with a car seat or a stroller. That isn't the issues the issue is safety after that.

That’s awful. Which store did they buy the Joie from? In our case when our frame broke after a solid year of use, we brought it to the store we bought it from and they sent it in to Joie for repair.
